May I ask what you posted?? The problem was definitely not you being in the military, that's for sure. Lots of exjw do that.

Reddit is super judgy and obsessively virtue signals....but that's insane even for them!!

Waiting On Jehovah First Mentioned?
by Ron.W. inyes, waiting on jehovah for him to handle a problem/ doctrine etc.. when did the jw's first start saying that?
they've been saying it as long as i can remember.. what scriptures do they trot out to back that teaching up?

The Master delayed in 1975"! The "slave" changed Matt.24: 48-51.
Absolutely Bill Covert. Very Astute observations.

Hi there's a 1959 Watchtower pamphlet called "Look! I am making all things new!" that mentions waiting on Jehovah.
Although Drearyweather is correct in that the Bible is the original source of the JW concept of having a "waiting attitude".

I have some questions about the Org.!
by KerryKing inare any or all of the gb from jewish descent?.
why are they so fascinated with following ancient jewish 'principles' ?.
isa 43:10, 44:8 ' you are my witnesses ' which they based their religious identity on, jehovah's witnesses, yet those verses address the jews, not christians, which they profess to be.. jesus said in ac 1:8 'you will be witnesses of me ', .

" consider the balance of teaching time spent between talking about OT topics and characters and NT topics and characters. What do we see? It is obvious that the ratio is at least a 75/25 split, in favor of Jewish themes."
"Simply said, people in a rule based religion are easier to control, it demands unity of thought and purpose ... and in our case, it was important that the Jehovah's Witnesses religion, looked drastically different to the classic Christian faiths "
I'm with No Zombie on this one.
They focus almost exclusively on Jewish "principals" to the exclusion of the loving and forgiving message of Jesus, only visiting the NT in order to twist Paul's words on shunning and deprive witnesses back in the day of children and a happy family life.

Jew is usually someone born of a Jewish mother (but in very liberal cases, a paternal line is sometimes acknowledged today).
Interestingly enough, in Bible times a Jewish identity was reckoned from the male line and only after the founding of Rabbinic Judaism did it change to the maternal line (it's thought around the 4th or 5th century C.E. although no one knows for sure). It's funny because I always assumed it had always been through the female line, since back then it was the only provable line.

was very creepy. Used to show up at my house, uninvited, with a bottle of wine. Telling me things like "Im not circumcised, but I pull that skin back every day, and wash myself.” 🤮
Oh Lord....where do they find these perverts...🤦🏻♀️
Tahoe May be interesting to rifle through some of that old Watchtower paperwork...perhaps some old tracts and books/elder manuals?
